About Gloss

Gloss is a free hair salon website template for WordPress, made for hair and beauty salons, nail bars, blow-dry bars and day spas. It includes a 16-section home page, a full service price list by stylist level, a colour consultation page, a memberships section, cancellation terms, reviews and a booking page — editorial, warm and built around the thing salons actually sell, which is time.

Pages included

  • Home — The full home page: hero, credentials, services, price list, the salon, numbers, colour, how an appointment runs, the team, memberships, reviews, gallery, cancellation terms, FAQ, journal and booking.
  • Services — Every service explained, prices, how an appointment runs, memberships and FAQ.
  • Prices — Full price list by stylist level, memberships, deposits and cancellation terms.
  • Colour — How colour works here: consultations, patch tests, correction and realistic expectations.
  • Contact — Booking details, finding the salon, opening hours and FAQ.
  • Chair notes — a styled blog with three demo posts, archive and search templates.

A 17-section home page

No plugins bundled — here’s what we’d add

This template is the design: the pages, the sections and the content. It installs nothing else, so you choose the plugins and can swap any of them later without changing themes. For a salon site these are the free plugins we would pick, and the same list appears in the dashboard under Appearance → Gloss setup.

  • Salon Booking System — Built for salons specifically: services with real durations, individual stylists, shift patterns and deposits to stop no-shows.
  • Amelia — A broader appointment plugin if you also run classes, spa rooms or more than one location.
  • WPForms Lite — Colour consultation forms with photo upload, so a client can send their inspiration pictures before they come in.

Fast, accessible and SEO-friendly

Gloss is a block theme: every section is a pattern you can edit in the WordPress page editor with no code. It uses self-hosted fonts, no theme JavaScript, AA color contrast and responsive layouts, and works with Yoast, Rank Math and other SEO plugins. 3 color styles are included (Default, Noir, Jade). Looking for a hair salon website template, beauty salon website template, hairdresser WordPress theme and nail salon website? Install Gloss, import the demo and start editing in minutes.
